What specific tasks can I start giving them?

You might start with small chores like making their bed, helping with meal prep, or managing their homework schedule.

How do I encourage them if they struggle with these tasks?

Encouragement is key! Offer praise for their efforts, provide guidance, and be patient as they learn to manage new responsibilities.
